The plastic model kit Fujimi 433615 Sea Way Model (EX) Series IJN Aircraft Carrier Akagi in 1/700 scale is a faithful miniature replica of one of the most important ships of the Japanese Navy—the aircraft carrier Akagi. This highly detailed set from the renowned manufacturer Fujimi allows you to recreate the legendary vessel, which played a key role in the history of World War II—as one of the main aircraft carriers in the Pearl Harbor offensive in December 1941.

Akagi was originally built as a battlecruiser, but was converted into an aircraft carrier under the terms of the Washington Naval Treaty. In service with the Imperial Japanese Navy, it was used from the late 1920s to mid-1942. It is best known for its role in the attack on Pearl Harbor and the Battle of Midway, where it was sunk. The operational period of the carrier falls within World War II.
